If we talk about classic drinks to enjoy before a meal, we have to talk about the famous Negroni. It is simple but sophisticated. It is a combination of gin and Campari and you should know that it’s just perfect for a dinner party. And about the Campari, you can either love it or hate it, but cannot ignore it! The sweet vermouth present in this cocktail also reduces some of the bitterness of the Italian spirit.

It’s quite easy to mix up the Negroni and there is really no special thing to know to make it taste great. It’s usually stirred but it can be shaken, strained and served in a cocktail glass. An orange twist makes it more refreshing and whichever way it is prepared, it’s a fantastic drink before a meal. However, and even better version of the Negroni is chocolate negroni!
